I took out my sword and faced the beast.
It was standing on its hind-legs and drooling molten saliva. It was very canine looking and stood about 20 feet tall.
"Oh crap!" Iana said
"Look out!" I warned
The beast began to charge forward at us with ferocity. I dodged out of the way and so did the others.
"Damn. What is that thing?" Cecilia asked.
"A demon. Duh."
"Shut up Iana." She replied.
"This demon seems more powerful than any we've encountered..." I said.
"Its best if we don't hold back!" I continued. My sword hand twitched and I ran towards the beast with my sword in hand.
Although it did not react it just stood there, looking feral.
I did not care though. I lept it the air and plunged my sword into it's side.
"GRAAFHHGKGH!" It appeared to become more angrier
"GRAHHHH!" Like a dog it violently shook its body in order to get me off.
"Hup!" I took my sword out of his flesh and lept from the beast, landing softly in the desert sand.
"My turn! Time for the big guns!" Iana said.
From behind her back she took put her gattling gun.
She released thr trigger and it started firing.
*Ratatatatatattatatat*
The signature sound played in my ears, the bullets rang out and struck the beast in its abdomen.
"RAGGGGHHH!" It didnt seem to have any effect and Just made the beast angrier.
*Gnarl* It snarled it's fangs at us.
Then a sort of Red liquid began foaming from it's mouth.
"Look out!" I warned!
*SSSSSS*
The red liquid spewed from its mouth and directly at us.
I swiftly dodged out of the way, But I didn't see if the others had.
"AUGHHH!" Someone cried.
I turned my to see a horrific site.
"Cecilia!"
Cecilia was kneeling on the floor in red liquid had burned off a portion of her arm, melting her flesh. I could almost see the Bone of her arm.
"Argh! Dammit!"I didnt know why these damn demons couldnt just leave us alone!
Why do they always have to Harm and kill our friends/family?
Why do they have to destroy everyone thing around us? Including our hope?
"..."
The anger swelled up within me and I gripped my sword.
A blue Fluorescent light came from it
And Illuminated the darkness within me.
Without a thought I slashed the air creating a Beam of light that Cut the demonic beast in half.
"RAWWRRRRRRRRRR"
The demonic beast cried as it was cut in half. I Didn't even look at it when it Died as I turned my attention to cecilia who was badly injured
"Cece!" Iana cried as she went towards cecilia.
"Damn, That looks bad..." Natsumi commented.
She wasnt wrong. A whole section of Cecilia's arm had been melted off. You could almost see the bone and her arm and her veins.
"Ahghhhh." She cried in pain
"Hold on Cecilia..." I said. I reached into my pocket and pulled out my handkerchief.
It was patterned red and white and I placed on the area that had been burned off.
"This should stop the pain, Fortunately Due to the heat melding your veins there won't be any bleeding." I said as I held her arm.
"It still fucking Hurts...! OUCH!" She screamed.
It looked like any contact with her arm would cause it to her to go into pain.
"Cece..." Iana said worringly...
"This is what I get ...for being so reckless" Cecilia commented.
"Don't be ridiculous Cecilia... This isnt yours or anyone's fault..." I comforted
then looked to the horizon backwards.
I shouldve never gotten any of my friends involves in this... And now one of them is seriously injured...
"Iana. Natsumi."
I looked at them with stern eyes.
"Take Cecilia back to base." I said.
"What?" Natsumi questioned
"Shes injured and Its too dangerous For her to go on like this..."
"B-B-But! If we take her back Y-Youll have to face Soleus alone!" Iana warned.
" I know." I replied.
"That Insane!" Iana said.
"And besides Lilith we wont-" Natsumi
Was interrupted by cecilia who had been silent up till this point.
"No guys... She's right... I can't go on like this..." Cecilia said.
"... Cece..."
"I have faith in Lilith and I think that she alone can defeat soleus." Cecilia looked at me with glistening eyes. I reciprocated by saying:
"Thank you Cecilia..."
"Ok then..." Iana reluctantly said as she and Natsumi picked up Cecilia
"Good luck..." Natsumi wished.
They soon lifted cecilia out and went iut into the distance...
With that settled I had no worries and could take on soleus and save the world...
